The Spider
Hello little fella! hanging down from the roof
Idolizing brave knights quite similar your spoof
Oh going to weave again? Or it's just for fun?
Little feet you have, working under the bright sun
Running back and forth, driving professionally
The transparent lines made by your work patiently
Finishing your web to become firm like a wall
Though many times to encounter error and fall
The center point of abode certainly transform
Quirky wall especially in night ready to form
Calling the attention of your favorite meal
Uncomfortable gun target the prey to kill
Your strange beauty tailoring your suitors to loom
An angelic quietness of yours preparing their tomb
The pure work, modest tricks obtain your victory
But move amiss, foes eat you complimentary
Working hard endlessly can't stop the wind and rain
Your brave spirit and entire strength ignore the pain
